Carrying on the Family Business

Our son started lobstering on his own this summer.  He has been an apprentice for the last 3-4 years.  He now has his own boat and is using his grandfather's pot buoy colors. He fishes in Linekin Bay where the Tibbett's family has fished for generations.  My mother's family, the Brewers, fished the waters of Southport Island, one town over.

Vista Linekin Cottage, East Boothbay, Maine

Exterior Details

The cottage was recently opened up for the 2012 rental season. The water has been turned on and the shutters taken off and put away. The cleaning crew will be in soon to make everything perfect for our guests.   This full acre property is a great place for kids to explore. There are wooded paths, tide pools, wildflowers, birds and much more to entertain and delight people of all ages. The road the cottage sits on loops back onto itself making it a great spot for morning walks or family bike rides.  Bring your own boat or rent one.  We have a mooring for our guests just off of the beach.

View from the street side of the cottage.  The roof was shingled a few weeks ago.

View from the right side.  The twin bedroom is on the front corner and the master bedroom is on the bay side adjacent to the deck. 

The cottage sits on a bluff overlooking Linekin Bay and the town of Boothbay Harbor.

The beach path meanders down to the shore.  We had this ramp put in last year.

This is the beach at low tide.  

This view shows the large front yard and gives you an idea of the great views from the back deck.
